I'm a 20-year-old guy and I've been dealing with this phlegm or mucus issue in my lungs. Its been more than a month now, and whenever I cough to spit it out, it just keeps coming back. The stuff I spit out is sticky and has some white in it. I havent seen a doctor about this yet, and Im kind of worried. Can you tell me what might be going on and what I should do about it?

I've been dealing with a cough, cold, and throat infection for the past two weeks. I've already taken azithromycin 500, Montair LC, Omnacortil 10, and Joshina syrup, but I'm not seeing much improvement. Do you have any advice on what I should do next?

Waiting for test results can be anxiety-provoking. Swollen lymph nodes can have various causes, ranging from benign to serious. Common causes include infections, allergic reactions, or inflammation. In many cases, swollen lymph nodes resolve on their own. Try to manage your anxiety by: - Practicing relaxation techniques (deep breathing, meditation) - Staying occupied with daily activities - Avoiding excessive worry or speculation Your GP will discuss the test results and provide guidance on the next steps.
